    EKOS C1 Servo Mount Fail

    I went swimming today... In a 3 knot current.

    I did get my boat back though, and almost got to touch some Dolphins, it was headed out to the Atlantic Ocean. No worries, I swim there all the time, it's only a few feet deep most places at low tide. The current was a little scary today though.

    The steering servo mount came loose and the boat stopped turning.

    There was very little epoxy glue used to hold it down and the piece was not sanded. I'm not sure how it was expected to stay put permanently.

    So, I pulled the assembly, sanded the surface and expoxied it back in place. So, add re-glueing the servo mount to your New EKOS prep list.
